The world talks about Imran, hadlee, kapil and of late Freddie Flintoff and Jacques Kallis but Chris Cairns was in a class of his own.
Cairns was pure delight on the cricket field. A natural athlete with a lovely action and abiity to hit a real long ball. He could budgeon bowlers of all types and hit massive sixes.
He wwas one of the very few who could stand upto the Aussies at theirpeak and give it back to them in their own coin
I love watching him either batting or bowling! He is one of the great all rounders and his batting is a treat to watch! I wish him Happyness and God speed, post retirement! Umasutarao C
It was a great pleasure to watch Cairns(mightiest allrounder from kiwis) on the field.it is really a sad news for his fans like me. But everyone will have a day to call it out. To CAIRNS... We always have a great pleasure while watching your cricket and your styles. We cannot forget your innings against India in ICC knout champ final. All the best..
